Workshop: Organizing Media and Annotating an Image

Organizing Data / Box

• Keep an original copy of your piece of media that is different from your edited version!
• File naming is important. Please use a consistent convention. ex "source_description_dataretrieved" like "youtube_definingintersectionality_20190326".
• Please save your data in our box folder. Please create your own folder with your name.
• Consider making a piece of media that you use a lot a "Favorite".
• There is no storage limit. The max per a file is 15GB.

Annotate Images with Preview

• Open images (JPG, PNG, etc) in Preview, then activate the markup toolbar to gain access to annotation tools.
• Available tools include arrows, boxes, circles, and text boxes (among others).
• Make annotations to call attention to certain aspects of a still image before importing it into iMovie.
• Consider annotating a copy of an image, maintaining an original so you can quickly revert if necessary.
